Britain's Daily Mail, which first reported her as being in labor, reports the baby's father, Kanye West, is by her side in the hospital.

Earlier this week, Star magazine reported that West had cheated on Kardashian last October while he performed in Atlantic City, an allegation dismissed by both. He also announced Kim's pregnancy on stage in Atlantic City in December.

MTV says Kim previously said she would not allow cameras in the delivery room. "I'm going to keep that private," she said. Karsashian is also likely to take some time away from the spotlight. "I'm hoping to take some time off. And just focus on that and not really work as much for a little bit" she told MTV.
